Saturdays mean… another posting of My YouTube clip of the week. Now I’m a little behind in the X Factor UK world… I’m still catching up on season 11 (which has already ended with the amazing Ben taking the title). However… I can watch THIS performance over and over again. One of my favourite performers and performances of the season, I would like to introduce you to Ms. Lauren Platt.

Platt was the youngest solo contestant in the competition.[26] With the eliminations of Stephanie Nala and Chloe Jasmine in week two and Lola Saunders in week four, Platt was Fernandez-Versini’s last remaining act in the competition. In week 8, Platt was in the bottom two with Stereo Kicks but was saved by the public vote after the result went to deadlock.[27] However in week 9, she was in the bottom two with Andrea Faustini and was eliminated after only Fernandez-Versini voted to save her, finishing in fourth place and becoming the last of her acts to leave the competition.[10]

This video, published in Oct 2014 has had over 1,870,000 views (when publishing this post). I think it is soulful and beautiful and age appropriate and just flipping kiff. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Follow Lauren on twitter here.

If you have a video you would like me to share with the listeners of Heart 104.9FM please email me the link: keri@1049.fm

One of my favourite things to do is search the interweb for kiff videos so I can share them with YOU. So on a Saturday, between 2 & 3pm I post my YouTube Clip of the week, and play the audio on Heart 104.9FM. This week is a goodie, and a nice wind down to the year that was 2014.

This YouTube video, published this past Tuesday (Dec 2, 2014), already has 1,671,614 views. (at the time of me posting this). A compilation of some of the year’s pop chart toppers, mixed into a 2.5 minute song by YouTube duo, #UsTheDuo.
